Bought a LG 29UM59A, but after plugging in the USB-C, cannot detech the monitor.

In device manager, it's detected as 'Billboard display' ...

Any idea what may go wrong? INcompatible USB-C cable? Driver?

Stylus is bad, I gave up the pen.

Really? How bad are we talking about here? Like, when using Autodesk Sketchbook and you turned on the pen mode and the stylus won't work?; or it work its just not that great?

If the stylus is an issue I could use Adonit Ink or Wacom Ink

As I'm an Engineering Student, would recommend you to get a better powered chip.
This thing lags with photoshop autocad.

Won't recommend you get.

The new low end iPad now support Apple Pencil, I will switch to that.
Heard good reviews on the Pro Model, not sure about this new one.

Pen is bad

Haha bro same field! Probably I wont be installting autocad on it perhaps just for presentation to clients and sketching sometimes (light sketching).

Also I want to eliminate missing notes and messy desk in the office so probably all my notes after this just in the tablet.

I was planning to get Samsung Tab S3 but then I cannot installed my windows based heat exchanger sizing tool, planning on getting iPad too but...Apple was never an option. In the end it's either Surface Pro or Acer but then again, I already have USB-C peripheral so that's why I'm thinking of getting Acer Switch Alpha 12.

Avoid at all cost, rather get a decent Gaming Laptop or one that supports Thunderbolt 3.
